About us

We grow as and when the port grows. And although we are a good deal larger today than we were when we first started out, we still remain true to our family values. We call this “sustainable growth”. It also means that we constantly adapt to changing circumstances and conditions and that we continue to invest in people and machines, looking to the future with an open mind.

KEY VALUES

CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN understands the port

We understand the port like no other. We know the port inside out and have a good feel for what port enterprises need. Since as far back as 1966 we have tinged the port orange, in complete openness and transparency. We have more than half a century of know-how and experience behind us in every assignment we take on.

CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN embraces the port

CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN is a family business through and through. We are proud of who we are, what we stand for and what we mean for the port. We therefore embrace this port with respect for each other and for our customers.

CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN pushes the port

We push the port forward as a single team. Our staff and our high-quality and innovative machines make the difference on every wharf.

CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN makes life easier for the port

We make life easier for our customers as far as is possible with our personal and flexible approach. In practice this finds expression in a genuine 24/7 service. Or to put it another way... 100% commitment. A customer with a problem can be sure of one thing: we will solve it.

Mission

CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN moves the port

An international port such as that of Antwerp is never at a standstill, just as our machines are never idle. We have them operating day and night. That’s how it goes; that’s how the port works. And we are proud of that.

Vision

CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN grows along with the port

We grow as and when the port grows. And although we are a good deal larger today than we were when we first started out, we still remain true to our family values. We call this “sustainable growth”. It also means that we constantly adapt to changing circumstances and conditions and that we continue to invest in people and machines, looking to the future with an open mind.

Our

history

The timeline of CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN

Staf Cuypers founded CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN together with his fiancée Liliane in 1966.
Staf was the youngest of seven and as the son of a farmer, was predestined to follow in his father’s footsteps. The expansion of the port and a highly valuable tip from Liliane’s uncle decided otherwise. Overnight Staf started renting out forklift trucks on the docks.
Quick and efficient service proved to be the key to a genuine success story. The port continued to grow and CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN grew with it.
Lieven Van Hoylandt joined the set-up. With his technical insight he designed numerous innovative attachments and ancillary items that optimised the loading and unloading work in the port. In this way CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN became the reference name for equipment rental in the port.
Not long after that Marc Cuypers also joined the team. His technical-administrative abilities enhanced the company’s performance still further and made the service even more efficient.
Lieven and Marc proved to form the perfect tandem. Together with all the CUYPERS VORKLIFTEN staff, they are lending colour to the port today and will continue to do so in the future.
